The weakest summon? The devil's contract talent is maxed out at the beginning

Located on the side of Qiugu is a very steep slope, which is called Qiugu Slope by Qiugu people. On the slope is the main city of Qiugu, which is where Chituo occupies.

Easy to defend but difficult to attack is the most typical feature of Qiugu.

Below Qiugu Slope, Spring City's iron army has been parked here for nearly three months, always charging up the slope.

"The Qiugu slope is not only steep, but the distance is too long. Chituo's army ambushed a large number of archers on both sides of the slope. In addition, as long as they throw oil barrels down the slope, the army will not be able to rush up. ”

Pu Li, the deputy general of the Iron Army, a weirdo with half of his face exposed as if his bones had been corroded by something, reported to Aldrich.

"Has Tyron shown up these days?"

Aldrich asked a question unrelated to the battlefield.

Pu Li shook his head, "I tried to contact Tai Lun, but there was no reply. Judging from Chi Tuo's determination this time, Tai Lun should be in danger."

Aldrich smiled and said, "I know very well what kind of person Tyron is. He is timid. I am afraid that even if the Iron Emperor feeds him to the demigod stage, he still cannot change his weak character."

"He can't die, but he didn't come forward, which means Chituo is determined to fight this time."

Pu Li looked around, then waved his hand to let the people around him leave, and then carefully asked Aldrich, "Military, I heard that Chituo has a Buddha fruit, which can improve his strength a lot. If Chituo is really planning to overturn the table, should we make preparations?"

Aldrich raised his head slightly and stared at Puli through the iron mask, "What preparations are you making? Are you preparing to retreat?"

"You think I'm afraid of him?"

Pu Li shook his head quickly, "No, I didn't mean that, I..."

Before Pu Li could finish his explanation, Aldrich smiled and said, "We really need to make plans to retreat."

"ah?"

Pu Li's mind didn't turn around for a moment.

Aldrich explained softly: "If Chituo gets angry, I can withstand it, but I must protect the Iron Emperor's army."

Pu Li nodded, what he said was true, but Pu Li always felt that something was wrong.

Although this army is nominally Aldrich's army, it is actually all cultivated by the Iron Emperor. Every soldier in the Iron Army is built with a lot of resources and energy.

The death of any soldier is a huge loss.

Protecting the army is indeed correct, but this is very inconsistent with Aldrich's past practices.

Aldrich saw Pu Li's doubts, but he only explained perfunctorily: "This time is different from usual. This guy Chituo is crazy. He not only wants to fight against me, but also against the Iron Emperor."

"So we have to play it slow and steady."

Puli couldn't fault Aldrich's explanation, so he could only change the subject and talk about two other things.

"Military seat, there are two things to do now."

"explain."

"The first one is the issue of military rations and resources. The military rations that were supposed to be provided three days ago have not been received yet. Did something happen in Spring City?"

Aldrich said: "It's just that Prince Orson, who is in charge of army supplies, is missing."

"It's not a big problem. Let the brothers hold on for a few more days. This war will be over soon."

Prince Orson is missing?

Pu Li frowned slightly. This word... is so unfamiliar. Why is the prince missing?

However, this is not something that Pulina can control. He only cares about whether the army's supplies can arrive. "Military, what do you mean... this war will be over soon?"

"The Iron Emperor has ended his life in person. How long do you think Chituo can last?"

Pu Li nodded in realization.

If the Iron Emperor takes action himself, it will indeed end quickly, so it doesn't matter whether Orson, the prince responsible for managing finances and resources, is missing or missing.

"The second thing is the northern border. Our sentries have detected the news from the northern border. The lion has killed the crow and has left the black tower and is heading towards us. The surrounding small towns have been captured by them. ”

"The sentry's visual inspection shows that this army should be less than 10,000 people, but their combat power is very strong."

Aldrich asked thoughtfully: "Where are they?"

"The Qiugu border is about two days away from us. They were marching very fast and did not wait for the army's supplies at all. It was a bit like a desperate move."

Pu Li analyzed.

Aldrich shook his head, "They are not desperate. They cannot fight this tug of war with us."

"That's not bad."

"The Iron Emperor wants to end this chaos quickly, and this lion that is not a lion moves very quickly. Since everyone is so anxious, I will make this war faster."

Aldrich gave the unfinished order to Pu Li, "Let the Iron Army withdraw from Qiugu, and all the elites come with me to intercept the Lion."

"Intercepting Lions? All elites?"

Pu Li was stunned.

He immediately retorted: "But Military Seat, what should we do here?"

"Just stay."

Aldrich said casually.

Puli insisted on retorting to Aldrich, "Military seat, the Iron Emperor's order is to capture Qiugu and put down Chituo's rebellion. We cannot leave here without permission."

Aldrich asked Puli calmly, "What do you call me?"

"Military seat."

"Oh, you also know that I am the military commander. I thought... you were the military commander of this army."

Listening to Aldrich's sarcastic words, Puli sweated, "I..."

Aldrich stood up, patted Puli on the shoulder, and then said softly: "Stay here well, you are my lieutenant, do you understand?"

Aldrich emphasized the word "my" very strongly.

Puli looked at Aldrich in shock, then nodded slightly as if he understood something, "Yes, I am your lieutenant general."

…

at the same time.

At the border of Qiugu.

Zheng Yu met another group of acquaintances, professionals who randomly went to the Qiugu Abyss. One of them was Zhang An'an, the most important figure in the God Summoning Guild.

"President! Do you miss me?"

After Zhang An'an was pulled into the summoner space by Zheng Yu, he enthusiastically shouted to Zheng Yu.

Zheng Yu responded calmly, "I missed you a lot at first, but then I forgot about it while playing on my phone."

Zhang Anping: "..."

Zheng Yu then asked: "By the way, why did you come out instead of inside Qiugu City? Didn't Chituo notice you?"

Mentioning this matter, Zhang An'an's face darkened, "We were originally in Qiugu City, but something happened and we had to escape."

"escape?"

Zhang An'an nodded, "Chituo's so-called Buddha fruit is called Putting Down the Butcher's Knife."

Zheng Yu immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, "Oh, so before you put down the butcher knife, you must first become a butcher, right?"

"Um."

Zhang Ping An nodded.

Zheng Yu looked at Zhang An'an's dark eyes and asked, "Who was left in Qiugu City?"

"General Liao."

Zheng Yu fell into thought.

Then he said to himself: "Then Nan Muyun must know about this matter. We can't spare the manpower to rescue Liao Ning."

"Iron Emperor and Aldrich... are already on their way here."
